Apart from pharmacists and midwives, some medical students should be considered as vaccinators of the coronavirus vaccines, presidential spokesman Harry Roque suggested Monday.

Roque admitted that the government would need many health personnel to administer the vaccination of millions of Filipinos this year in the fight against the coronavirus.

Roque noted that the Philippines should consider emulating the United States which has tapped nursing and dental students for the vaccination drive. “Ang isa nursing student, ‘yung isa dental student, so pati mga dental students kinokonsidera na rin as frontliner for purposes of vaccination. Sa Amerika po ‘yan na dapat gawin din natin dito ,” he said.
